The Three Old Hacks discuss the visit of Donald Trump and whether our Prime Minister's apparent fawning over him is the only way to treat someone so vain."Flattery pays off with Trump", says David Smith, Economics editor of the Sunday Times. "You don't want to make an enemy of him".They note that Rupert Murdoch was on the guest list for dinner with the President of the United States, but Nigel Farage wasn't."Farage is not as close to Trump as he makes out", says David. Also on their minds this week - political analyst Nigel Dudley, former sports editor of the BBC Mihir Bose, and economics editor of the Sunday Times David Smith discuss the vulnerability of Keir Starmer's leadership of the Labour Party, Tommy Robinson's march in London and the role of the Office for Budget Responsibility. Get in contact with the podcast by emailing threeoldhacks@outlook.com, we'd love to hear from you!

This week on The Tax Factor, Malli Kini and Stefanie Tremain show why precision matters in both politics and tax with Nigel Farage learning the hard way that there’s a big difference between “I” and “we.” The conversation then turns to the ICAEW’s warning about Government plans to regulate tax agents. While the idea might sound straightforward, could it actually make the system less effective rather than more secure? And finally, the National Audit Office reports that HMRC is losing billions to small business tax evasion including more than £800 million through the practice of phoenixing but it also warns there doesn’t seem to be an effective strategy to deal with it!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, we cover the charging of Charlie Kirk's assassin, Trump's high-stakes trip to the UK, Germany's political and cultural reckoning, Denmark's Greenland pivot, and an unexpected health study on building muscle. From courtroom revelations to foreign policy clashes and even workout science, today's brief connects the dots shaping America's security and daily life.   Charlie Kirk Assassin Formally Charged: Tyler Robinson faces aggravated murder charges with Utah prosecutors seeking the death penalty. Text messages revealed him telling his trans boyfriend, “I had the opportunity to take out Charlie Kirk and I'm going to take it.” Robinson bragged about “engraving bullets” and retrieving his rifle from a “drop point.” Senator Mike Lee warned of possible Cuban and Iranian ties to Armed Queers Salt Lake City, while critics blasted ABC News for framing the texts as a “very intimate portrait.” Bryan warns, “This is bigger than one loner assassin… this is a puzzle piece that fits into a Leftist revolution.”   Trump Visits the UK Amid Socialist Criticism: London Mayor Sadiq Khan attacked Trump as a xenophobe fanning “far-right politics,” even as King Charles prepared a lavish welcome. Trump will meet with Prime Minister Keir Starmer and may also meet Reform UK's Nigel Farage, a move described as “Make Great Britain Great Again.” Bryan says such a meeting would be “sweet revenge” after Labour staffers campaigned for Kamala Harris in U.S. swing states last year.   Germany's Reckoning with AfD Surge: The populist AfD party won record support in western Germany as voters revolt over high energy prices, economic stagnation, and radical Islam. A spate of Islamist terror attacks and growing “no-go zones” in Berlin add to fears, while reports mock German workers as lazier than Greeks or Italians. One slacker told reporters, “There are other parts of life besides work, you know.”   Denmark's Greenland Pivot: After Trump's pressure to secure Greenland, Denmark pledged $250 million for new runways, ports, and defenses against China and Russia. The timing of the announcement — as Trump landed in London — highlighted Denmark's attempt to appease U.S. demands without ceding sovereignty.   Finland and Poland Revive Bog Defenses: Officials plan to restore swamps and peat bogs along Russian borders to bog down invading tanks, reviving a centuries-old defense strategy. Baltic nations may follow, though Germany dismissed the idea as too costly.   Health Research on Muscle Building: Illinois researchers found that lean pork after workouts builds more muscle than fattier cuts, adding to past findings that whole eggs and fresh salmon outperform supplements. Bryan quips, “Get strong… you never know when a Leftist might come for you.”   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson charged, Utah death penalty, Armed Queers Salt Lake City Cuba Iran ties, ABC News Charlie Kirk texts coverage, Trump UK visit Sadiq Khan criticism, King Charles Windsor Castle Trump, Nigel Farage Reform UK meeting, Germany AfD populist surge, German worker laziness Washington Post, Germany Islamist terror Cologne rapes, Denmark Greenland $250 million defense, Finland Poland restore bogs Russia defense, Illinois lean pork muscle building study, whole eggs salmon workout protein

When Keir Starmer brought Labour back to government last year with a majority of 174, many talked about two or even three terms in power. But over fourteen months the Prime Minister has run into numerous problems, losing both Angela Rayner as deputy PM and Peter Mandelson as US ambassador (to different scandals), and facing formidable opposition from Nigel Farage's Reform party riding high on the issue of immigration control. In this first episode of a new strand in the LRB Podcast, host James Butler talks to former Labour MP and minister Chris Mullin, columnist Andy Beckett and journalist Morgan Jones about whether Labour can recover from critical mistakes over tax, why they're failing to communicate their achievements, and who they should really be trying to represent.

The big news in Westminster today is that there has been another defection to Reform. But this time it feels slightly different: a front bench Tory with a CV that spans multiple Tory leaders and a number of books on Conservative thought is now batting for Reform.Danny Kruger, Nigel Farage's latest defector, served as David Cameron's speechwriter, Boris Johnson's political secretary and Robert Jenrick's campaign manager just last summer. His defection will therefore come as a serious blow to those who argue that the Conservative party stands a better chance than Reform of winning the next election.Kruger told the room that he believes Reform now stands the best chance of saving the country at the time of the next election and that his former Tory party was ‘finished as the main opposition to the left'. His argument is that Reform is the ‘new home' of conservatism. Where does this leave Kemi Badenoch? And will his defection open up the floodgates for more to follow?Oscar Edmondson speaks to James Heale and Lucy Dunn.Produced by Oscar Edmondson.Become a Spectator subscriber today to access this podcast without adverts.

They examined the systematic dismantling of American institutions under Trump's administration, including attacks on the civil service and potential weakening of military capabilities, while also discussing the emerging alliance between authoritarian states opposed to American influence. The conversation concluded with a discussion of the current state of American politics, including the narrow margins in recent elections and the need for effective opposition strategies to defend democratic values both in the U.S. and across Europe.Democracy's Challenges in Populist EraAnne and Nick talk about the current state of democracy in the United States and Europe, focusing on the rise of populism and the shift towards identity politics. Anne highlighted how political figures like Nigel Farage in the UK and Donald Trump in the US have maintained support despite policy failures, attributing it to the emotional appeal of their cultural identities. They explored the question of whether real-world issues like inflation and healthcare are now less important than online cultural battles. Andrew asked Anne about the dangers facing American democracy, to which she responded that it is indeed in danger, but the outcome is still uncertain.The UK must wake up to the MAGA reality! Anne argues that the UK should wake up to the new reality - Powerful elements at the top of the Trump White House & MAGA not only consider the so-called "special relationship" as not only over but see the UK as an enemy. Anne says, there's a very powerful strain. Inside this administration and inside the American far right who really hate Britain. And they hate Europeans and they hate the Germans. ... there's a constant narrative about how the British violate free speech and how, you know, Britain is, an extreme left country and so on."She says, " I'm not saying they dominate this administration, and you won't hear this from Marco Rubio, but there is a strain inside MAGA, which essentially reflects Russian propaganda. ... there's a piece of, of that movement that doesn't really want anything to do with Britain or Europe anymore....I would watch out for that and as I said, have a contingency plan and think about a world in which the United States is run by people who are hostile to Britain."

There are some new (and old) faces on the left of British politics hoping to challenge Keir Starmer's struggling Labour government, but could a party to the left of Labour ever win power? His predecessor Jeremy Corbyn has setup a new party with another former Labour MP, Zarah Sultana, who has declared that “Labour is dead”. And the Green Party of England and Wales has elected eco-populist Zack Polanski, who is urging left-leaning voters to back him rather than waiting around for Corbyn's party to get off the ground. The journalist and political commentator Ash Sarkar has written a book called ‘Minority Rule', which argues that the Left has become bogged down in identity politics and needs to stop fighting the culture wars so it can focus on building a broad coalition of support.A contributing editor at left-wing media organisation Novara Media, Ash discusses the radical potential for a Marxist approach to contemporary British politics and why she thinks Karl Marx would've loved Twitter. She also talks to Amol about why she can't think of a ‘dumber group of people' than Keir Starmer's cabinet and what lies behind the recent success of Nigel Farage's Reform UK.

Reform UK's annual conference wrapped up this weekend – and it was anything but dull. From Andrea Jenkyns belting out her original song ‘I'm an Insomniac' on stage to Nigel Farage trying to keep a sometimes chaotic movement united, the mood was more rally than conference. Despite the optimism in the room, there were obvious cracks under the surface: mainly, do Reform have enough experience in their ranks for the business of serious government?On Coffee House Shots, Oscar Edmondson is joined by Tim Shipman and James Heale fresh from the conference floor. They discuss Farage's role as ringmaster of a broad – and sometimes unruly – coalition, Reform's hopes of fielding thousands of councillors, and the dangers of drifting too close to the conspiratorial edges of politics.Also on the podcast, there has been a steady drip of reshuffle news over the weekend. Starmer's snap reshuffle saw Shabana Mahmood promoted to the Home Office in what many see as the most significant move of the week. With boats and hotels dominating the immigration debate, can she succeed where so many of her predecessors have failed? And what does Angela Rayner's departure mean for the deputy leadership – and Labour's uneasy relationship with the unions?Produced by Oscar Edmondson.Become a Spectator subscriber today to access this podcast without adverts.

El fiasco Starmer

La viceprimera ministra del Reino Unido, Angela Rayner, dimitió este viernes tras admitir que había declarado mal a Hacienda la compra de una vivienda en la localidad costera de Hove, a más de 400 kilómetros de su circunscripción en el Gran Manchester. El error le reportó el beneficio de ahorrarse unos 46.000 euros en impuestos. El diario Daily Telegraph había publicado la exclusiva unos días antes y, tras una investigación en el seno del Gobierno, se concluyó que era cierto y a Rayner no le quedó otra salida que presentar su renuncia a Keir Starmer. Rayner pertenecía al círculo cercano de Starmer. Es de origen humilde y dedicó buena parte de su carrera a los sindicatos. Tras ello se convirtió en uno de los rostros más reconocibles del ala izquierda del partido Laborista. Rayner es, por ejemplo, una gran defensora de subir los impuestos, especialmente a las rentas altas, para aliviar los problemas de déficit que arrastra el Gobierno. Paradójicamente su dimisión ha tenido que ver con una cuestión fiscal por la compra de un apartamento de lujo que le costó más un millón de euros. Para Starmer la dimisión de su número dos es un golpe más que deberá encajar en un momento especialmente delicado para él y su Gobierno. El partido Laborista obtuvo una sólida mayoría en Westminster en las elecciones del año pasado. Prometieron un nuevo tiempo caracterizado por la estabilidad después de unos años marcados por los escándalos de los sucesivos gabinetes conservadores. De eso ha pasado poco más de un año y tanto Starmer como el laborismo se encuentran hundidos en los sondeos y con la popularidad en mínimos. La salida de Rayner se produce además después de un verano muy caliente, plagado de titulares de prensa sobre el fracaso del Gobierno para detener el flujo solicitantes de asilo que cruzan el canal de la Mancha en pateras. La cuestión migratoria se complicó poco después con la sentencia de un tribunal que ordenó cerrar un hotel en Epping, una ciudad al norte de Londres, que el Gobierno había contratado para alojar inmigrantes en espera de su resolución de asilo. Rayner daba al Gobierno cierta determinación y fervor ideológico. En un gabinete formado por gente anodina y gris, a la viceprimera ministra le gustaba fajarse con los conservadores, incluso teniéndolos ya en la oposición. Gracias a ella Starmer conseguía mantener bajo control a los más izquierdistas del partido, para quienes Rayner era su principal activo. Sin ella y tras tener que sofocar una rebelión de sus diputados más radicales hace unos meses por anunciar una serie de recortes en las prestaciones sociales, Starmer tendrá que apañárselas para evitar una revuelta a mucha mayor escala que podría llegar a costarle el puesto. Rayner podría de este modo recuperar protagonismo, pero esta vez como referente de la oposición a Starmer tanto en el partido como en el parlamento si, a sus ojos, sigue moviendo su Gobierno hacia la derecha para contrarrestar el auge de Nigel Farage y su partido, Reform UK, que se encuentra ya ocho puntos por encima de los laboristas según las encuestas de intención de voto. Para tratar este tema y sus muchas implicaciones, entre las que se encuentra la suerte política del propio Starmer, vuelve Paco Muñoz a La ContraCrónica, desde un estudio que hemos improvisado en Cambridge. · Canal de Telegram: https://t.me/lacontracronica · “Contra la Revolución Francesa”… https://amzn.to/4aF0LpZ · “Hispanos.

Can Starmer Survive as Farage Sets UK Politics Agenda? #Starmer #Farage #ReformUK #UKPolitics #MilitaryCamps #ECHR #JonGaunt #CloseHotels Nigel Farage has basically taken over the UK political agenda. Reform UK had its conference, the polls are moving fast, and we've even got Tory MPs jumping ship to join him. Meanwhile, Starmer suddenly wants to put illegal migrants in military camps and shut down migrant hotels — but let's be honest, it feels like he's copying Farage's homework. Too little, too late. But Farage? He's promising to rip up the ECHR and deport illegal migrants within two weeks of taking power. No wonder people say they trust him more than Labour or the Conservatives right now. Tonight, we'll break it all down: the polls, the defections, the immigration debate, and what this all means for the next election.
